Report: Half of Barry Callebaut's products now contain sustainable cocoa or chocolate
Progress report highlights achievements toward making sustainable chocolate the norm.
Barry Callebaut has launched its 6th Forever Chocolate Progress Report, presenting its progress against the target it set in 2016 to make sustainable chocolate the norm. The Progress Report, covering fiscal year 2021/22, ending August 30, shows that that company is continuing to scale up its activities by partnering with customers as well as societal and industry stakeholders to create tangible impact on the ground. One of its key achievements is that with the support of its customers, it increased the proportion of products sold containing 100% sustainable cocoa or chocolate to 49.4%, meaning one in two products.
"Forever Chocolate is our plan to make sustainable chocolate the norm, and it is truly becoming a reality! With the support of our customers, one out of two products we sell contain sustainably sourced cocoa or chocolate," said Peter Boone, CEO, Barry Callebaut Group.
